According to the Rocky Mountain News, "Muslim cadets at the Air Force Academy were prevented from attending mosque services last semester because of school obligations, while similar duties were scheduled to avoid conflict with Jewish and Christian services, a Muslim student says...."
The article also mentions that, " [A] 'sanction committee' of staff and faculty approved the Muslim students' request, but then attached so many restrictions that it effectively blocked the cadets from attending services...."
"Jewish cadets.... told [Muslim cadets] that a sanction committee had excused Jewish cadets from some Saturday military training so they could attend synagogue."
